I don't think that faceplate will work with that chassis.

Hey, its getting closer, how did you do the transfers for the control labelling around the pots, is it cut out from a printed or thermal label sheet? I've seen see-through label sheets that I think will fit in my little ebay printer and was wondering if its worth a try for faceplates etc

Nice indicator lamp, looks like a white chocolate malt ball  :icon_biggrin:

Hey Brother! It was easy! I bought some clear decal paper from Hobby Lobby, found the appropriate lettering on line, then edited it in Photoshop, applied it to the previously painted and drilled faceplate, then clearcoated it about a hundred times, lol and viola! That lamp is from the Hammond organ!! Vintage!
